For me it worked!!

It's 10 minutes.
Go have a snack or something.

Record on repeat, it is also being used on worlds that don't need it in the least. I'm happy it worked for you, but for me it's only a 15 minute period I don't get to play, and a 1hr 15m period that I can't Q for anything (as a DD.)

It isn't all sunshine and roses.

Please read, or at least please don't try to get a rise out of me.

Coming from a server with a 30 second queue tops- and as a DPS main, I feel like it's a small price to pay to give some of the other players who are distressed a better chance to play in an acceptable time frame.

a small price to pay

Okay i'll bite. It feels like this:

Waiter: This is your table, sir
Me: Thank you. Here is a tip for you.
Meantime on the next table
Guy: No, I don't want to leave!! I still have some weeds!
Manager: I'm sorry sir but I have to call police.
Guy pushes waiter to my table, wrecks everything and leaves.
Me: Wow.. what a rude guy. I like the food but not with him around.
Manager: Unfortunately his gang come around this time. Can you try 1hour later?
Me: .. mkay..
The Next Day, 1 hour later
Me: Hi, is my table ready?
Manager: I'm sorry sir, give us 10 mins to pretend we're closing and clean everything.
Me: ...

Not only the 1h delay. not 10 minutes -today-, it's 10 minutes for rest of your FF14 life.
I'm all for kicking the culprit server out but if it was a real food, I lost my appetite before sitting in.

It's a temporary measure.

Well it's not for the rest of our FF14 life because they're only doing this temporarily.

Hopefully temporary means one week until they implement something less unreasonable, and not one month.

Or three.

I have no doubt that this work, however at the same time it's punishing servers that don't have this problem. For example; I'm on Gilgamesh, the second highest population server in NA. Aside from the launch of the expansion, the highest amount of que I have to deal with is like 20-30 people, and thats on the weekends as well. Granted, I do believe a lot of servers benefit from this, but a lot of servers also suffer. Why should servers that don't have this problem get treated the same as bigger populated servers?

It's like if you have 5 kids and only one of them does something wrong, do you punish all 5 of them?

[PharisHanasaki]

Probably because there's people abusing the AFK boot in all servers, not just the big ones. Less waste of resources, more for those who need it.

Our server is not listed as one of the "full to capacity please gtfo" servers. Yet at prime time every evening 18.30-20.00 the queue has been around 1500-2000 people and has taken an hour and a half at a minimum to tick down. Logging in right now and its gone from 1700 to 600 in less than 5 minutes. Its working for us though I do see the point that as this queue issue has only been listed as being on 10 worlds you would think only those ten worlds would need the measure.

I see the need of this and I see that it's apparently working. Really glad you guys finally get to log on in a reasonable time.
But please don't use the "it's just 10 minutes" argument. Dps have 30+ minutes queue time, dungeons take around the same. For a Dps it's not 10 minutes, it's over an hour we can't really do much that requires us to queue, such as dungeons, trials, roulette,... For people that only have few hours they have time for playing I can see why they wouldn't like this.
It would honestly be enough to just reset the servers with the 1000+ players in queue.
